How to rewrite an OpenVPN file

Once you have the zip file, decompress it.

ZIP file: user.zip - http://downloads3.ipbrick.com/wiki/user.zip

Inside you'll find four files:

• ca-server-ipbrick.crt

md5sum: ca8153af46bf8cddab95a064e54c1474 ca-server-ipbrick.crt

• user.crt

md5sum: c7a060b8e842415586c25319188eac8b user.crt

• user.key

md5sum: c0898f304cef0dd56e38243937226883 user.key

• user.ovpn

md5sum: f03249bce06c8107c4d109faa34a75c8 user.ovpn

Then, open your .ovpn file. It will look like the one below.

cert ipbricksupport.crt
key ipbricksupport.key
ns-cert-type server
#tls-auth ta.key 1
#cipher x

#mute 20
#daemon

To rewrite it, add the following elements (as highlighted in red, in the picture below):

• ;
• <ca> </ca>
• <cert> </cert>
• <key> </key>
• The content of each file.

Note: Use a text editor to open the files and copy its content.

Your .ovpn file is now ready, it will look like the next one.
